My first airbrush was a Badger 200 and I loved it, used it for 10 years. I bought the Badger 175 when it came out and used it for a few years, I liked it, but it felt a bit heavy. I didn't build anything for about 10 years, in that time my airbrushes went missing. Once I started building again about 10 years ago, I had to buy all new, so I bought the Badger 200 again, sadly they changed the design. I bought a used Model 175 on eBay, but never had a chance to use it, I cannot find Badger parts anywhere. 4 years ago I bought an Iwata HP-C plus and love it, the best airbrush I have ever used. I bought an Iwata HP-BCS a couple years ago, tried it once and never used it again. After having the gravity feed HP-C plus, I hate using the bottom feed.

Bill, congrats on having your Corvette displayed on the site. Anyone else notice the Shelby and TBird sets pictured beside the logo at the top.

Are the tires listed the same as those offered before or has there been new ones added. Other than the sets I have ordered in the past, I have no idea what the others looked like, only knew the part number. Nice to have pictures. I hope by the end of first day the lead time won't be 2 years for an order.

How about the American wheels from AMT 1955 Nomad? The spokes would be the same, but you would need to play with the offset to get what you want. You would need to use 4 front wheels. I believe Round2 removed these beautiful wheels from the latest versions of the Nomad.

Where does it say it isn't happening?

He has a Facebook page, I have messaged him there. https://www.facebook.com/okey.spaulding

If you have a suitable window to vent it outside, certainly do. But in my case there wasn't one, so yes, I use it inside without fumes. I get more fumes in the house from the lacquer thinner soaked towel to clean my airbrush.

I talked to Dave Thibodeau when I built my spray booth and use the same fan as he does. The fan is amazing and sucks out any and all paint fumes and over-spray. It is a 6" Hydroponics High CFM Air Blower. One addition I made was to get the optional Activated Carbon Filter. The is not near a window, so I vent directly into the filter, the is no fumes or smell in the room even after painting 2k clear. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/4-6-8-10-12-Inch-Inline-Hydroponic-Duct-Fan-Filter-Combo-Kit-Hydroponics/253722290219?hash=item3b1306e82b%3Am%3Amh9U4-0vQuLww0jCscGHjvA&var=552988835840&_sacat=0&_nkw=hydroponic+duct+blower+filter&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=m570.l1313

I am using a set of Fireball Modelworks Pontiac Hubcap with redlines on my Revell 1968 Firebird. They also have a nice set full wheelcovers that would look great on the Firebird. Fireball also offers a very nice set of Rally II wheels, but they are 1/24.

Do you know the contact info for Time Machine Resins? Are they still around? Contacted T.M. Resins on eBay and they say they never offered this part.

Those look great. I would like to see this done with 50's wire hubcaps where the hubcap is in the center with a wire ring on the outside. Like this 1956 Chevy Wire Hubcap.

I was wondering the same thing

Once in a while I will buy a quality hobby tool. Hope these are worth it, they were not cheap.

They can at least acknowledge the email. Not saying they have to replace anything at this time, just respond in some way.

First of all I should not have to worry about replacing a damaged body...again. I have lost count the number of time I had to get a replacement from Revell. Round2 I have only ever made one parts request for bad chrome in the Monte Carlo kit. I should not have to look on eBay for someone selling a body for nearly the price of a new kit, it would be different if I screwed it up and needed a replacement. I am disappointed in the customer service at Blitz, it has been a week and a half and no response. They could have acknowledged my email. I think the future of Revell is not going to be good.

My last two orders have been 6 -8 weeks to get filled. No worries, he is busy and your stuff will arrive.

Sent them a message on Sunday, still no response.

Anyone know how or where to get Revell replacement parts? Is Revell germany is handling this? I finally found a new 1970 Torino GT and the roof is crushed.

Yes

I placed an order Friday afternoon and it shipped Friday evening. It cleared Canadian customs on Monday morning and I will have it tomorrow. I have never had a problem with Gravity Colors.

Good job on the hood. I would take the hood scoops out of the amt '70 Super Bee and do this one with the Ramcharger hood.

Got the email my order shipped Monday. Kinda shocked as the Canadian dollar is not what it was when the order was placed. Ordered the 1968 Coronet, with shipping and exchange $150, I could have found an original for less.

Thanks, I may try MCW. Interesting that the Corvette and Plymouth used the same color.

I love that copper color. I wanted to paint my Moebius 1965 Satellite Code H Copper. So far 3 failed attempts in getting it mixed, each time it comes out different, but always an ugly shade of brown, not the Pinkish/reddish Copper colors you see in the pictures above.
